Hi, Please advise whom I should report the following bug:
I experience a total computer lockup shortly after booting the computer. No particular application is involved. The scenario occurs while working in the Gnome 3 desktop environment (gdm3). Keyboard and mouse input is ignored. The screen image remains visible and undisturbed as at the time of lockup. The only recourse is a hard reset by pressing and holding the power button. This bug appeared after I installed the firmware-linux-nonfree package from Debian stable (Wheezy) with the intention of making my ATI/AMD Radeon X300 graphics card capable of 3D acceleration. (The Gnome3 desktop requries 3D acceleration via the Mesa Gallium 0.4 driver.) The bug goes away if the NoAccel option is set to True in xorg.conf or if the firmware-linux-nonfree package is removed. Another user reported a identical problem at - https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=43835 I am unsure whether to report the bug to Xorg, Mesa (Gallium) or Debian. Please provide a link. Your advice is appreciated. Thank you in advance, Paul Dell Dimension 8400 Intel® Pentium(R) 4 CPU 3.00GHz ATI Radeon X300 (RV370) 5B60 (PCIE) (ChipID = 0x5b60) Linux 3.2.0-4-amd64 i686 Debian xorg-server 2:1.12.4-6+deb7u2 Mesa-8.0.5-1
